About Jieun

Hello! I’m Jieun—a certified Korean language teacher (Level 2), former Air Force interpreting officer, and now a student at Berklee College of Music, where I began my musical journey later in life. Learning a new language is like discovering a new world—not just around you, but inside you. Let’s unlock that together. As someone who became fluent in English without ever studying abroad, I understand how to turn limited vocabulary into real communication. The problem isn’t vocabulary—it’s utility. While a lot of language learners believe they lack vocabulary, even a 3-year-old can express themselves freely because they know how to use what they have. And that’s our first goal: to speak—right now. And because we’re adults, we’ll take it even further. With a bit of writing support and the right cultural context, your learning can accelerate in ways you didn’t expect. I’m also a passionate language learner myself. I taught myself both Japanese and Chinese without ever leaving Korea. That’s why my classes go beyond grammar and vocabulary—they’re about mindset, rhythm, and cultural fluency. You’ll understand not just what Koreans say, but why they say it—and where those differences come from. These are all insights from my years of self-taught language learning. But above all—I understand your passion. I’ve met people who’ve reshaped their lives to follow what they love. I’m one of them. It took me over a decade to allow myself to pursue music. I used to work until 10 p.m., then sneak into a tiny studio I could only afford after midnight (it was cheaper), just to practice the violin. Now I’m studying music on scholarship at Berklee, close to 30, and still chasing what I love. I feel you. I know how hard it is to carve out extra time from your busy daily routine just to learn a new language. And I'm here to support you. I’ll be your booster, your coach, your biggest supporter. My classes are structured, personal, and full of energy—because language should lift you up, not weigh you down. Whatever you’re looking for in Korean, you’ll find it here—and more than you thought you needed. Born and raised in Seoul, I don’t just teach Korean—I share the soul of it. Let’s bring Korean into your life, one real conversation at a time.

- Online lessons with a strong focus on communication. I provide ample supporting materials and emphasize understanding Korean culture. Drawing from my experience as an interpreting officer, I help students speak fluently with minimal vocabulary. I prioritize practical speaking skills over passive learning.

- I focus on helping students use Korean from day one—not just learn about it. My multilingual background helps me explain Korean in learners’ native terms, and my structured yet flexible approach keeps lessons efficient and motivating.

- Lessons are open to all levels—from absolute beginners who cannot yet read Hangeul, to advanced learners seeking fluency or cultural depth.
